Chapter 17: Fight to the Death
When Wukong was confused and waiting in Big Star City, Li Daozong was actually in the same confusion in Mayi City. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
A day ago, Li Gui and Zhang Fan'an, with a full 300,000 Dasui warriors, rushed straight towards Li Tang's northern frontier, which was north of the Mother River at this time and did not have a legion to garrison it.
Li Daozong knew that in this battle, Big Star City would never be able to defend it, and in five days at most, Li Tang would completely become a short history and be completely defeated.
After Li Tang was destroyed, there would be no stumbling blocks on Da Sui's way forward, which could prevent him from unifying the two states of Youzhuo.
It stands to reason that Li Daozong has become an important minister of Da Sui, and he is also related to Wukong, his future is bright, and there is no need to be confused at all.
However, Li Daozong was extremely confused about his future at this time.
He didn't know how he would face Wukong in the future, how to face the other important ministers of the Great Sui, how to face the result of the collapse of the Li family, and how to face his own glory and wealth.
Now he doesn't have a single soldier in his hands, even if he wants to do something and change something, he is powerless and helpless.
The only thing Li Daozong can do at this time is to find a tavern and get drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows.
"Boss--!Serve wine--Don't you see that Uncle Ben's bowl is all empty?Hurry up and bring me wine-!" Li Daozong slapped the table and yelled loudly at the owner of the tavern.
"Guest officer, it's not that I don't give you a drink, it's just that ...... You've drunk seven or eight jars of old wine. There's really no other good wine in the shop, and if you want to drink it, I'll have to give you a bad drink. You...... , do you want to drink?" the boss was afraid that Li Daozong would have no money to pay the bill, so he said deliberately.
However, the boss obviously thinks too much, Li Daozong has a bad shortcoming, that is, he is extremely greedy for money.
After he finished the battle of the royal court, he only handed over fifty percent of the spoils to Da Sui, and the remaining fifty percent, Li Daozong was so bold that he directly put it all into his own pocket!
As the second richest man in the world, Li Daozong directly used the money to buy wine and flooded the entire Mayi City, which was more than enough, how could he not pay the bill.
"You're not going to give me this set! I'm afraid I won't be able to pay the bill, are you? These five gold coins are not enough to buy your tavern! Serve me a drink, uncle!" After shouting extremely arrogantly, Li Daozong slapped the five gold coins on the wooden table with a snap.
The boss swished, grabbed the gold coin firmly in his hand, and then without saying a word, he immediately gave Li Daozong, and directly served ten jars of aged wine.
When Li Daozong was about to pour wine and continue drinking, more than a dozen warriors suddenly slowly walked into the tavern.
"I've got it here, you leave now, and you can get a silver coin each. If you don't leave, just watch it yourself. As soon as the leader's voice fell, the samurai behind him pulled out their sabers at their waists at the same time.
As soon as the five guests in the tavern and the owner saw this posture, they immediately wisely chose to take the money and leave, and quickly left this place of right and wrong.
The young warrior, after his subordinates had searched the tavern and made sure that there were no idlers, sat directly opposite Li Daozong.
"Cousin, I want to control the entire Yard City, please help me. Li Shimin went straight to the point and said calmly to Li Daozong.
Li Daozong didn't expect his cousin to be so happy, and he didn't beat around the bush at all, and directly said his intention.
In this case, Li Daozong will not be sold.
"Marshal, what can you do if you take Mayi City? With those 300,000 Tang troops, can you block the 800 dragon horses in the hands of Li Gui? It's useless, this battle is not at all, there is no possibility of winning at all!" After saying it painfully, Li Daozong raised his head and drank a bowl of wine.
"You're wrong, as long as you can take the yard. Not only can we win this battle, but we can also win the entire Youzhou!" Li Shimin replied calmly and unswervingly.
After Li Daozong heard his words, he was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he said to Li Shimin with a wry smile: "Cousin, forget it......." Xiao Dan made a pact with me that he would not kill the Li family, the lives of anyone. If you insist on fighting this battle, you will not only harm our people, but also cost 300,000 samurai their lives! ā
"Are you finished?" Li Shimin still looked at Li Daozong calmly, and asked calmly.
Seeing that Li Daozong just shook his head and smiled bitterly, Li Shimin continued to say slowly: "You think Li Tang will lose this battle, and Li Ghost also thinks that Li Tang will lose." Therefore, he only took 800 dragoons, 50,000 bone armored cavalry and 50,000 moon-shooting cavalry to the south. Zhang Fan'an's Demon Lion, Demon Leopard, Demon Mastiff, and the 200,000 warriors of the three legions are strong, but they are not cavalry at all! Now, do you dare to say that there is no chance?"
After hearing this, Li Daozong was extremely frightened in an instant, broke out in a cold sweat, trembled in his hand, and threw the wine bowl he was holding directly to the ground.
He furrowed his brows, and quickly deduced in his heart that the odds of defeating the 300,000 Sui army were defeated, and in the end, Li Daozong's result was that Li Tang could win miserably, and some fought!
Eight hundred bone armor dragoons plus fifty thousand bone armor cavalry, although it is outrageous and strong, there are still three hundred dragon horsemen in Mayi City, and one hundred thousand Li Tang forbidden army.
These forbidden armies are all cavalry, although they are not as powerful as the bone armored cavalry warriors, but under the leadership of three hundred dragon cavalry, with the 50,000 bone armored cavalry in the hands of Li Gui, and the eight hundred bone armored dragon cavalry, it is absolutely possible to fight him to the end.
100,000 Xuanwu plus 20,000 demon bears and 50,000 gluttony, with Zhang Fan'an
100,000 demon leopards, 30,000 demon lions, and 70,000 demon mastiffs, fighting together to the end, can also be done.
Of course, the premise of all this is whether Li Shimin can take Xia Ma Yi, whether he can take Xia Guo Zihe, and all the generals of the Sui army.
This is the reason why Li Shimin came to Li Daozong, as long as the little cousin is willing to help and take the yard Yi City, it is not an impossible problem at all!
"Cheng Yao can't move in Beiliang at this time. After this battle, I will immediately start my troops from Ma Yi and divide Beisui equally with Dou Jiande. In this way, the general trend of the whole world will return to its original track. Brother, in the future, who will be in charge of the world depends on your decision at this time. Li Shimin endured the excitement in his heart and said calmly.
Li Daozong was completely stunned now, he just calculated the outcome of the Great Star War, and he didn't think about how the general trend of the world would change.
Therefore, when he understood Li Shimin's overall plan, he suddenly fell into a sluggish state.
After a long while, Li Daozong took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "Second brother, if you find me yesterday, I will definitely agree." But...... I've already sent all the 25,000 captured Ahamas to Beisui! Second brother, even if you can take Youzhou and take Beisui, what's the use? In the end, we won't be defeated?"
"Did you refuse to say that?" A cold light flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he asked Li Daozong coldly.
"I refuse. Li Daozong replied simply and clearly.
"Alas...... I rarely do things that I'm not sure about. You shouldn't use alcohol to kill your sorrows, and you shouldn't get rid of all your bodyguards and go out drinking alone. From now on, you will no longer be a member of my Li clan. Do it!" With Li Shimin's order, Li Daozong was knocked unconscious by the samurai behind him with a punch.
"I'm not you, even if it's the slightest chance, I can't give up. Looking at the unconscious Li Daozong in front of him, Li Shimin said plainly and firmly.
